Earn your bachelor’s and master’s degrees in less time at TWU

Three students at a table

Our BS to MS in mathematics program provides exceptional undergraduate students an avenue toward accelerated completion of a master’s degree. Students in the Bachelor’s to Master’s Accelerated programs will complete 12 graduate hours during their final 30 hours of undergraduate coursework that count toward their BA/BS and MS degrees.

Students planning to apply for this program should seek advising as soon as possible, preferably during their sophomore year of study. Once admitted to the program, students must meet with the program advisor at least once each semester prior to registering for courses. During the semester of graduation from the BA/BS program, students should seek advice from the graduate advisor to plan for the subsequent semesters of only graduate courses.
